Python and R: Python Interfaces to R

R is a powerful and freely available statistical language.
In Debian it is installed as r-base.

# wajig install r-base

We can now install either RSPython or RPy. Both provide a
Python interface to R, and RSPython also provides an R
interface to Python while RPy is generally easier to use than
RSPython! RSPython is not packaged for Debian yet, but RPy is.
